谁帮我做一下这几个题的答案,谢谢!


Q5 to Q7:


      According to a theory advanced


           by researcher Paul Martin, the wave


           of species extinctions that occurred


Line          in North America about 11,000 years


  (5)         ago, at the end of the Pleistocene era,


can be directly attributed to the arrival


of humans, i.e., the Paleoindians, who


were ancestors of modern Native


Americans.  However, anthropologist


(10)         Shepard Krech points out that large


animal species vanished even in areas


where there is no evidence to demon-


strate that Paleoindians hunted them.


Nor were extinctions confined to large


(15)         animals:  small animals, plants, and


insects disappeared, presumably not


all through human consumption.  Krech


also contradicts Martin’s exclusion of


climatic change as an explanation by


(20)         asserting that widespread climatic


           change did indeed occur at the end of


           the Pleistocene.  Still, Krech attributes


secondary if not primary responsibility


for the extinctions to the Paleoindians,


(25)         arguing that humans have produced


local extinctions elsewhere.  But,


according to historian Richard White,


even the attribution of secondary


responsibility may not be supported


(30)         by the evidence.  White observes that


Martin’s thesis depends on coinciding


dates for the arrival of humans and the


           decline of large animal species, and


Krech, though aware that the dates


(35)         are controversial, does not challenge


them; yet recent archaeological


discoveries are providing evidence


that the date of human arrival was


much earlier than 11,000 years ago.

Q5:  


Which of the following is true about Martin’s theory, as that theory is described in the passage?


                     



  • It assumes that the Paleoindians were primarily dependent on hunting for survival.

  • It denies that the Pleistocene species extinctions were caused by climate change.

  • It uses as evidence the fact that humans have produced local extinctions in other situations.

  • It attempts to address the controversy over the date of human arrival in North America.

  • It admits the possibility that factors other than the arrival of humans played a role in the Pleistocene extinctions.

  • Answer:


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Q6:


    In the last sentence of the passage, the author refers to “recent archaeological discoveries” (lines 36-37) most probably in order to




  • refute White’s suggestion that neither Maritn nor Krech adequately account for Paleoindians’ contributions to the Pleistocene extinctions

  • cast doubt on the possibility that a more definitive theory regarding the causes of the Pleistocene extinctions may be forthcoming

  • suggest that Martin’s, Krech’s, and White’s theories regarding the Pleistocene extinctions are all open to question

  • call attention to the most controversial aspect of all the current theories regarding the Pleistocene extinctions

  • provide support for White’s questioning of both Martin’s and Krech’s positions regarding the role of Paleoindians in the Pleistocene extinctions

  • Answer:


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Q7:  


    Which of the following, if true, would most weaken Krech’s objections to Martin’s theory?


                         



  • Further studies showing that the climatic change that occurred at the end of the Pleistocene era was even more severe and widespread than was previously believed

  • New discoveries indicating that Paleoindians made use of the small animals, plants, and insects that became extinct

  • Additional evidence indicating that widespread climatic change occurred not only at the end of the Pleistocene era but also in previous and subsequent eras

  • Researchers’ discoveries that many more species became extinct in North America at the end of the Pleistocene era than was previously believed

  • New discoveries establishing that both the arrival of humans in North America and the wave of Pleistocene extinctions took place much earlier than 11,000 years ago

  • Answer:

    作者: Ivy2004    时间: 2004-6-26 15:23
    我的答案是, B, C, C.
    关键这篇文章最后是反对三个人的观点还是仅反对前两个的观点.???
    请高手指教!!!!!

    偶怎么觉得是 答案是 A 呢? 因为 Martin 这家伙的理论确实是以 hunting 为假设的.  而且文章中根本看不出这家伙 "denies that the Pleistocene species extinctions were caused by climate change." 对吧?  可能有可能没有deny, 我们怎么能想当然呢? 呵..

    关于楼上的问题,虽然年代久远但还是回答了它:

    17行:Krech also contradicts Martin’s exclusion of climatic change as an explanation

    可以作出选择

    我的问题是,第7题如何排除C选项呢,我觉得B有很多不尽人意的地方

    同问!BC好像都能削弱阿


    作者: skidals    时间: 2005-5-19 23:54

    c选项没有削弱结论

    (C) Additional evidence indicating that widespread climatic change occurred not only at the end of the Pleistocene era but also in previous and subsequent eras

    krech反驳M理论的观点之一就是说M理论没有考虑气候因素

    不同意

    正是因为气候的大规模变化自始至终都存在,所以,可以推出气候的变化不会导致大规模的灭绝

    5.   B, "Krech also contradicts Martin's exclusion of climatic change as an explanation by asserting that widespread climatic change did indeed occur at the end of the Pleistocene."
    6.   E, "... does not challenge them ;  yet recent..."  the semicolon indicates the recent discovery is included in White's observation. It's here to support his question.
    7.   B, "nor were extinctions confined to large animals: small animals, plants, and insects disappeared, presumably not all through human consumption."

    "nor were extinctions confined to large animals: small animals, plants, and insects disappeared, presumably not
                all through human consumption."

    not all说明Krech承认部分灭绝是由人导致的,所以选项B不能削弱Krech的结论。支持C
